Episode Synopsis

We start the week on The RÚV English Podcast service with a new episode of The Week In Iceland.

Today, Darren is joined by his RÚV colleague Pétur Magnússon.

The news continues to be dominated by investigations into the killing of a Polish man in Hafnarfjörður. Darren and Pétur discuss that, as well as the vitamin and melatonin gummies that have poisoned some children, the fright that so many Mastercard customers had in Iceland when they thought they were being overcharged by vast sums for their purchases, and the naming and opening of Edda - the Icelandic House at the University, now a reality after more than fifteen years of planning.

The episode plays out with a new solo single by Hatari's Klemens Hannigan - Never Loved Someone So Much - which was released last week.
